wheni wasa studentyears ago,i use to go tosquare oneantique mallon sunday morningsby myself.it is oneof myfondestmemoriesfrom that time.i have a lotof great stufffrom that place.

this past fridayi went to thevillageafter a longhiatus...unfortunatelyi was operating on low blood sugarand wasn'tquite in to it...also i waswith a friendwho wasn'treally intoperusing.it's difficultto get into perusingwhen you arewith someonewho isn'tdoing the same.

I had those books when I was little! I still have them, in fact, and now L reads them:)The illustrations are wonderful. And I love the thickish cream colored paper...I definitely prefer thrifting alone -then I can dawdle as much (or little as I want) over each thing.So when do we get to see the picture of the architect bag?xo

Save a mint! Go used! I give some advantages of shopping at consignment shops, thrift stores, antique shops, and more at peoplepowergranny.blogspot.com. And while in my neighborhood, vote in my poll on what you like to buy used.

those are amazing finds for low blood sugar... what would have happened if you had been searching post-bubble tea? :) and i am like martha, unless you are with someone who is super into it, it can be better to be alone... but hunting around with someone who is on your wavelength is so much fun too. xo

i noticed from your etsy that you're from dc. what bubble tea places do you recommend? i'm guessing the one you're referring to in your post is near a value village. amazing cathrine holm bowl. that's one of my dream thrift finds.
